I see NCIX always has these things on sale and was just curious if anyone has heard them before. I am looking to upgrade my home theatre and was thinking about purchasing these due to their price. I've been looking at AV123.com stuff as well, but am afraid of shipping from the USA. Which is another reason I was looking at the Kef's.

I've heard from a few other friends that is it supposedly good stuff for the price. Likely better than the Soundstage towers I paid $50 for at a garage sale.

Soundstage is actually good stuff but you can't cheap out on it. I have a Soundstage 10" sub and you'd be surprised how loud that little guy is. Another guy on the forums has 2 in his setup and likes them too.

The KEF Muon is one of the most grand speakers out there, @ about $150k PER SPEAKER, so that "high-end" innovation does translate down to the "lower-grade" speakers.

The fact that they even have such a model boasts how highly regarded they are, and speaks volumes() about thier R&D budget.

The 204/2c (3.2ohm minimum)Center and the 1000w 209 Subwoofer are pretty high on my list of "If I had limitless funds I would buy..."

Ported speakers to the front is to make them sound louder than they are :(

hola crapo! Visions is $600 more for a pair for the IQ9's. Too bad NCIX sold them before I could buy them, they better be back on sale next week. Here's to hoping.
